Hi all,
I have a need in several of my tables to generate identifying
numbers, but relative to a certain relationship. So, if there is a
Book, I need to generate number 6 for it if Author currently relates
to 5 other books... I have an approach of doing this, please anyone
tell me if there is a better way to do it!
My approach:
1. Lock the working thread on a monitor that is "static final" in my
SessionWorker class
2. Get the next number by using aBook.valueForKeyPath
("[EMAIL PROTECTED]"); //can not use @count in case of
previous deletions
3. Set the next number in aBook
4. Save the changes of my working editing context
5. Release the synchronization lock
Questions:
Is there way to use EOF locking to lock on the database? It seems to
me that would be more appropriate for what I am doing then the plain
Java thread synching, and would work even if there were multiple
application servers running, where the above approach would not. Any
other ideas where this might flop and how to prevent it?
Thanks!
Florijan
